After winning at trial on its counterclaim, Premier Homes Group, LLC sought to recover its attorney’s fees from Pinnacle Flooring Solutions, LLC. The trial court denied Premier’s request for attorney’s fees, finding that Premier had not sufficiently identified the basis for its request in its counterclaim as required by Rule 3:25(b) of the Rules of the Supreme Court of Virginia.
